(CNS): A 23-year-old man from George Town was arrested for a catalogue of offences after a disturbance on Wednesday at Seven Mile Public Beach. Police were called to the busy beach at about 1:30pm following reports that a man had brandished a knife at another man and made threats against him. When officers arrived, they approached the suspect and requested a search to see if he had a knife. However, he refused and became aggressive towards the officers, police said.

After a brief struggle, he was detained by the officers and arrested for disorderly conduct, though no knife was found on him. He was taken to the detention centre, where he continued to behave in an aggressive manner and made threats against the officers. When he was searched at the centre, police found he was in possession of an undisclosed quantity of ganja, but he refused to submit to a drug test.

As a result, he was further arrested for disorderly conduct at a police station, making threats to kill, possession of ganja and failing to provide a specimen. He was then bailed pending further investigation.

    Could someone please arrest the cops for driving motorized vehicles over turtle nests, in nesting season?

    Oh – and for their abject refusal to set the community standards demanded by our people, in accordance with our laws!!!

    Why is *everyone* aggressive with the police? What is the procedure for de-escalating?

      Ghetto residents are the supporter/voters of our GTc and Bodden Town Jamaican MPs.
      Kenneth, Saunders Seymour, and of course Mac, will fight to keep the higglers for their Wotes.
      To get rid of the higglers, you have first to rid Cayman of those four MPs.
